Now if they added Realm Ranks I would fall over in my chair with happiness
There are a lot of Elements in Ashes of creation I recognize from Asheron's Call with a bit of different flavor from other areas....
Home skillet didnt even put down the OG games of the OG games lol
Ever since then I've been searching for a game that brought DnD and MMORPGs together in a meaningful way.
I've never found an MMORPG I had as much fun playing as RO. I loved the grinding and that you HAD to play in a group if you didn't want to torture yourself as a Priest, because imagine that: in RO a priest only had heals and buffs and maybe 3 dmg skills you could only use against undead and Demons. Or heal undead to dmg them.
A mage had to find a grind spot suitable for the elemental skills he choose. A lightning mage couldn't do shit against enemies with lightning resistance.
I miss this concept. Today all MMO's healers are doing almost as much dmg as a warrior. And Elemental resistances became a myth. If I wanna play a healer, that means I wanna heal. If I wanted to do dmg I wouldn't play a healer for gods sake!!
Grouping up with other players also just felt so natural and easy back then. While nowadays MMO's are more made for solo play than party play tbh.
FFXIV is the MMO I played the most after RO. But only because it was the lesser evil amongst all the MMO's I tried out.
AoC does certainly look like it will make many things right compared to others and will bring back some of the things that have been lost.
Oops this turned into a rant, sorry 🙈
You should have included an "Other" option
Also Star Wars could be either Star Wars: The Old Republic or Star Wars Galaxies (or another Star Wars MMO I don't know yet)
You might as well just start a poll asking, “How old are you?”
Dunno, I'm old, but didn't get in to PC gaming until I was near 30.
I suppose it was easy to get in to. And free, right? Was it? I only played very briefly.
Omg that was when I was born! It's so fun to learn what games people played, even more interesting is that some of them were way before you were even born.
I really hope we have a great MMORPG with AOC. I just can feel how it's going to bring me back home.
I heard a bird ♫
